New construction in the Ambler area often comes with a builder-preferred lender. What most buyers don’t realize:
- You are not required to use the builder’s lender. This is always your choice.
- Builder-preferred lenders are retail — they carry higher margins than wholesale brokers.
- Independent broker pricing through 100+ wholesale lenders typically beats builder-preferred retail financing.
- "Incentives" tied to using the builder’s lender often evaporate when you compare total loan costs.
- Always get an outside pre-approval to compare before committing to builder financing.

FAQ — Mortgage Broker Ambler PA
Q: Should I use the builder’s lender for a new construction home in Ambler?

Q: Can I get an FHA loan for an Ambler condo or townhouse?
A: For townhomes: yes, if fee-simple. For condos: only if the complex is on HUD’s FHA-approved list. Call to check specific developments.
